He's considering moving up. http://www.smh.com.au/sport/boxing/...-revive-flagging-fortunes-20111106-1n22i.html
Same old story, get beat and move a weight division. Win and say how great he feels at this weight atsch. Fact is no weight change will help him, the bloke is on the slide............ it's over at the top level.
Allow a nuthugger to dream Beaver. But at the top level you may be right. He was talking Morales at 140 at one stage. That would be end badly for Mick.
I thought Burns was being underestimated by all and sundry on here. Kid can fight and following that he's going to improve further IMO.
Burns suprised me big time, i thought he was going to wilt away after the 5th but he stayed strong and stuck to that game plan. Also his high guard was spot on, i wonder if all the shots he took on the gloves were hurting him at all? Some of the leather mick was throwing was hard
Razak is what he is. He goes the distance and throws a few shots. The kid had only had 2 fights, both over 4 rounds and less than ten senior am bouts. Of course he is padding his record. He is also gaining experience etc etc it happens a lot. The fella who got done in a round had never been floored before let alone stopped. He obviously fancied it against the debutant and came out swinging,
Didn't see the fight or undercard, but what you have to remember is that a lot of guys abroad that have bad records, would probably beat a heap of our guys who have great records, simply because they are matched against better fighters.
Kats has a heart has big as my tool and that is saying something but he must consider hanging them up before it is too late. He has given us a plethora of entertaining and memorable fights and we should bow at his alter for that but who wants to see him become a gatekeeper?
Gatekeeper, Gatti, step up in weight is all about making more money IMO. The death of his brother seems to have taken some soul, the many knocks to the head have taken their toll, come home and fight (if he calls it home, seems to call wherever he's fighting home) would be great :happy No need to hang them up Michael but I agree I don't want to see him take more knocks to the brain (didn't watch the fight but sounds like he was outclassed).
